The Shumakers and the old GMC

This is so cute - for her anniversary, Penny, who I used to work with, asked me to come and take some family pictures in front of this beautiful old truck. Not only did she get all her kids together, but she got everyone dressed up in period clothing to go with the truck and their home in the background. You are so clever, Penny. Enjoy!

Mr. and Mrs. Neilson

Talk about true love - you were so adorable together! I had to work hard to get a picture of these two not kissing, cause they were lockin lips all day. It's so wonderful to see how passionate you are about each other, and how deeply you care about each others families. Christine, you were so calm and collected, and a fearless model for the camera. Thank you both for letting me drag you around town even on our tight schedule, for all your patience, and your heartwarming smiles.

Kellianne and Friends

Congrats Kellianne, you are officially the most frequently documented model for Barnswallow Photo. I absolutely loved hanging out with you and your friends, documenting some fun times before you take off for school. What a great memory for you all to have - not only the pictures you will take with you, but the memories of getting to hang upsidedown on the monkey bars again, riding a paddleboat, cartwheeling, and of course, everyone pushing Kellianne off our old condemned Point Park Dock. I can imagine how you guys are gonna live without each other, but I wish you all the very best!!

Melanie and David

Melanie and Dave are getting married next summer and I am so excited to shoot their wedding! We already have some pretty cool ideas for the pictures, but I won't give away any secrets. It was fun hanging out with you guys and getting to know you a little more, great call on climbing the tree, Dave! It's nice to see how much fun you two have together. Enjoy the rest of your summer!

John, Cindy, and Ashlee

Well, Ashlee was my first ever newborn photoshoot so it was pretty special for me to be able to hang out with her and her mom and dad for the evening. It's wonderful how curious she has gotten, and it's so precious to see you all together and how caring and patient you are towards one another. Thanks again for having me!

Mr. and Mrs. De Gagne

Ahhh, congratulations Susan and Kalon!! Some friends from high school were kind enough to ask me to be both a photographer and guest at their wedding and everything about it was so much fun! I have to send a big thanks out to the wedding party and the chaufer, Phil, for all your patience as we ran back and fourth from the cars trying to escape the rain during the pictures.

Susan and Kalon are fun loving people, so we got to do some pretty fun stuff at this wedding, including post-ceremony Scrabble, and a portrait of all the guys going at Kalon with their hammers, which were their gifts from the groom. Susan, you were just stunning, what else can I say. I had to include a shot of the wedding spatula, because that had to be one of the most classically-Susan parts of the day, right? Love you guys <3 Enjoy France!
